Hi, I'm looking for a factory spoiler. I have a 1997 EX coupe. I don't want one of those ricer wings that are 2 feet tall. Just a stock looking one, that can be painted to match y stock color.
Would like to find a nice lip spoiler, but can only find the ones that stick on from eGay. Any one know sites for spoilers? Thanks. |

personally, i don't care for any spoiler on my civic, i've got a 00 coupe and it looks really clean witout it but you can find them on a lot of sites. Not many of them stock the OEM rear wings but cheap imitations. If you can't find one at a junkyard, find a used one on "eGay" or go to the dealer for a wing. The rest of places on the internet will rip you off as much as the dealer. As for the lip, they go for like $150 and up for the factory ones. My advice to you, buy one of the $50 to $80 polyurethane tpye-r or mugen lips from eBay again cause it's the same exact thing. The ABS lips will crack so make sure it's the polyurethane one. same yourself a hundred dollars and get a better paintjob with a stronger clearcoat (you''ll need it). happy hunting!

Thanks. I was at the junk yard the other day. I found a 1998 Ex four door. Pulled the gauge bezel (mine was cracked) and valve cover. The vavle cover got bead blasted and was painted last night. Going to do another coat and a shot or two or high temp clear coat.
I'm going to get the whole car repainted, but I just don't want a cheap $4-500 Maaco job. It's hard here finding a shop that will do a factory-qaulity paint job for under $2500. |
